Prague named the European Forest City 2025
We are pleased to recognize Prague as the European Forest City 2025, a city that values the integration of green spaces and nature-based solutions in an urban setting. With its extensive green areas, Prague is actively enhancing climate resilience and sustainability, as demonstrated in its Climate 2030 Plan, which includes the ambitious objective of increasing forest and green areas within the city.
As part of this recognition, Prague will host the EFI Annual Conference 2025, bringing together scientists, experts, and policymakers to address one of the most pressing challenges facing Europe’s forests - rising forest disturbances and strategies for their mitigation.
By prioritizing urban forests and green infrastructure, Prague sets an example of how cities can proactively tackle climate change while enhancing the well-being of their citizens. We look forward to meaningful discussions and knowledge exchange on sustainable forest management in both urban and rural landscapes.
